title: Training in short-term psychotherapy.
abstract: A new approach to short-term psychotherapy, based on psychoanalytic theory is presented as 'Therapy of limited time and objectives'. Personal experience, psychoanalytic knowledge and flexibility for accepting technical modifications allows for familiarity with concepts such as 'available setting', 'operational time' and 'adequate therapeutic time', which together with supervision and deep psychoanalytic learning, emphasizing counter-transferential knowledge, shall help to achieve a true epistemophilic sentiment, essential for empathic observation and listening, basic for training in short-term psychotherapy.
